kenton Posted September 27, 2004 Report Share Posted September 27, 2004 Basically, when 10.1 official comes out, will there be another 10.1 "Community" release? I don't have DSL so I'm having to download it at a friends and don't want to download it twice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tarelax Posted September 27, 2004 Report Share Posted September 27, 2004 It goes like this as far as I know: 10.1 "Community Edition" has been officially released for everybody to download as you know. Next, (I don't know the exact time) there will be 10.1 "Official Edition". It will be made available first to paying club members. After some delay (1 week to 1 month) it will also be released to the general public freely. The difference between the two? Think of CE as a pre-release for impatient people who want to participate in the debugging process. OE is the final final release hopefully "production grade stable". If you are going to make one download only then wait for the OE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ramfree17 Posted September 27, 2004 Report Share Posted September 27, 2004 You can always use Cheap Bytes for the software. It's really cheap!! I used them a lot prior to dsl. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> only if you live in the same continent. if i use them then the shipping cost itself is higher than the cost of the cd. :) i know, i know. i just cant let that one pass and im stressed here at work. ciao!
